I am really excited for english this year. I am really looking forward to the things that I have heard about so far like our blogs and our class reading. I really like the idea of this blog because we will be able to make our writing our own each week and it will help us practice our writing without having the pressure of an essay or a rubric grade. I think that this will really help to improve my writing and also help me to become more comfortable with it than I have been in the past. Another thing that I am really looking forward to is our class reading. I think that reading Shakespeare again won't be bad and I think that The Lord of the Flies and Nervous Conditions sound pretty good. I normally like reading a lot more than writing though so maybe it's just me.
I am also a little concerned about some things in this class. Some of the major ones are the workload and my ability to manage my time effectively and efficiently with all of the long-term assignments in this class. I play football and baseball throughout the course of the year and am normally not home until late. This shouldn't be an issue if I use all my free time at school to get things done, so I am not that worried about it. Another concern that I have heading into this year is that I don't love to write all the time and it sounds like that will be a major part of this class with our blogs and other everyday writing. Overall I am looking forward to this class and hope to have a great year.
